I have a Setrab 129ci oil cooler from SPL Parts but I'm having some cooling issues after about 4 hard laps. I think it's because of the small stock radiator. I'll be upgrading that soon. If I had to do it again I would probably go with a slightly larger oil cooler.

I also plan to make a custom undertray and maybe some ducting for the oil cooler.

What will you be upgrading to, and do you have a stock thermostat?

I don't think the thermo will make a difference once it opens will it?

Probably a Mishimoto rad, and thermostat won't make a difference.

Pretty good times, humidity does kill. What were your 60' times?

I misunderstood. I thought you were upgrading the oil cooler.
